Raindrops fall vertically at 7.5 m/s relative to the Earth. What does an observer in a car moving at 20.2 m/s in a straight line

measure as the velocity of the raindrops? (Assume the car is moving to the right and that the +x-axis is to the right. Enter the magnitude in m/s and the direction in degrees counterclockwise from the +x-axis.)

Answer:

vDP = 21.7454 m/s

θ = 200.3693°

Explanation:

Given

vDE = 7.5 m/s

vPE = 20.2 m/s

Required:  vDP

Assume that

vDE to be in direction of - j

vPE to be in direction of i

According to relative motion concept the velocity vDP is given by

vDP = vDE - vPE     (I)

Substitute in (I) to get that

vDP = - 7.5 j - 20.2 i

The magnitude of vDP is given by

vDP = √((- 7.5)²+(- 20.2)²) m/s =  21.7454 m/s

θ = Arctan (- 7.5/- 20.2) = 20.3693°

θ is in 3rd quadrant so add 180°

θ = 20.3693° + 180° = 200.3693°

Where are the physics in football
sasho [114]

Answer:

The branch of physics that is most relevant to football is mechanics, the study of motion and its causes.

Explanation:

When the ball leaves the punter's foot, it is moving with a given velocity (speed plus angle of direction) depending upon the force with which he kicks the ball. The ball moves in two directions, horizontally and vertically. Because the ball was launched at an angle, the velocity is divided into two pieces: a horizontal component and a vertical component.

A lead ball has a mass of 55.0 grams and a density of 11.4 g/cm3. what is the volume of the ball?
lesantik [10]
Density=mass/volume therefore volume=mass/density; 55g/11.4g/cm^3= 4.82cm^3

What are the three ways that a person can manipulate light?
BARSIC [14]

The three ways a person can manipulate light would be the following:, filter, and the time the photograph is taken

 

<span>1.    </span>Angle - <span>The </span>camera angle<span> <span>marks the specific location at which the movie </span></span>camera<span> <span>or video </span></span>camera<span> is placed to take a shot.</span>

<span>2.    </span>Filter - Camera<span> <span>lens </span></span>filters<span> <span>still have many uses in digital photography, and should be an important part of any photographer's </span></span>camera<span> bag.</span>

<span>3.    </span>Time the photograph is taken - The golden hour, sometimes called the "magic hour", is roughly the first hour of light after sunrise, and the last hour of light before sunset, although the exact duration varies between seasons. During these times the sun is low in the sky, producing a soft, diffused light which is much more flattering than the harsh midday sun that so many of us are used to shooting in.

 

I am hoping that these answers have satisfied your queries and it will be able to help you in your endeavors, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.
